"The whole team at State Farm is fantastic! I’ve had them for years, and they have consistently go to bat for me, through many life changes and situations. Years back, Stephanie sent me a Starbucks gift card (out of the kindness of her heart) when I was struggling with some very difficult issues. I have never had a negative experience with them. They always treat me like a friend."

"Kristen, thank you for your wonderful feedback! I'm so happy to hear that our team has been there for you through various life changes. Stephanie and the rest of us truly value the relationships we build with our customers. If there's anything else we can do for you, just let us know!"

"I am an out of state property owner. I previously was a state farm client but my agent retired. I went with another company and was not impressed. I am happy to say that Kenzie at James Cochran State Farm made everything easy. I am back with state farm and very happy."
We responded:
"Hey, Tami! Thank you for giving us another opportunity after your previous agent retired and for sharing your experience as an out of state property owner. I’m so glad Kenzie was able to make the process easy and help you get your homeowners and car insurance set back up with confidence. We truly appreciate you coming back to State Farm and are happy to have you with our office again."

"As an out of state property owner with two policies, it's essential to have people I trust to be my eyes and ears, to represent me and my interests fairly. James Carlton -State Farm Insurance Agent is someone I can depend on. Mike in the office has been very helpful. Emails and phone calls are returned quickly--this helps resolve issues that arise and inspires confidence. Happy outcomes with small matters leads to confidence that if there ever is a larger issue, we can work through it to a fair solution. I've recommended this company to other family members who also do business with them."
We responded:
"Thank you, Jan, for your thoughtful review! I'm glad to hear that our team, especially Mike, has been able to assist you effectively. It's wonderful to know that our prompt communication and support have inspired your confidence. We truly appreciate your recommendations to your family members. If there's anything else we can do for you, just let us know!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Mike at the James Carlton State Farm Agency, and I was genuinely impressed enough to write this review, even though we ultimately moved forward with another carrier for now. After our previous insurer non-renewed our policies following a major storm that damaged our vehicles and home, I was in the market for new coverage and heard about James Carlton’s agency through a local radio recommendation. While I recognize that on-air endorsements often involve compensation, I approached the process with an open but critical mind as someone who values thorough research and value. Mike stood out immediately for his professionalism and expertise. He took the time to understand our specific needs, asking thoughtful, relevant questions without ever wasting my time or rushing the conversation. His knowledge of the industry is exceptional, he explained options clearly, highlighted key differences in coverage, and provided thorough comparisons that demonstrated real insight. What impressed me most was his follow-up: consistent, helpful, and never pushy. He kept me informed without any high-pressure tactics, allowing me to make an informed decision on my own timeline. In an industry where sales pressure can feel overwhelming, Mike’s approach was refreshingly respectful and customer-focused. He truly seemed to prioritize finding the right fit over closing a sale. Although financial considerations led us to another provider at the time, Mike recently reached out after noticing a significant rate drop, and we’re now planning to revisit our options at renewal. That kind of proactive, no-nonsense service is rare and speaks volumes about his commitment to clients. If you’re shopping for insurance whether auto, home, or otherwise I can’t recommend Mike highly enough. He’s knowledgeable, personal, efficient, and genuinely helpful. The James Carlton team is fortunate to have him, and I’ll be back in touch soon. Thank you, Mike, your approach restored my confidence in working with an agent who puts the customer first."
We responded:
"Hey, Chris! I truly appreciate you taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience with Mike and our office. It means a lot that you approached the process thoughtfully and gave us the opportunity to earn your business after such a challenging situation with your prior coverage. Situations involving storm damage to your home and autos can be overwhelming, and I’m grateful Mike was able to provide clarity and thorough comparisons while respecting your timeline. His approach to asking meaningful questions and keeping you informed without pressure is exactly how we strive to serve our community. I’m especially glad his follow up regarding the recent rate change caught your attention, as staying proactive and keeping customers aware of new options is important to us. Even though you chose another carrier for now, your willingness to revisit things at renewal speaks volumes, and we’ll be ready whenever the timing is right. Thank you again for recognizing Mike’s professionalism and for giving our team a chance to assist you. We look forward to reconnecting soon and exploring options for your auto and home coverage together."

"I listen to 101 ESPN radio and have been hearing the ads and testimonials re: saving money on home and auto insurance and decided to give them a call. After a brief conversation with Mike Ross to determine what coverage I had, he got back to me with a quote that saved us $1,500 per year. It was a simple, painless process. My only regret was not calling them sooner."
We responded:
"Thank you, Mike! I'm glad Mike Ross could help you find a more cost-effective insurance solution. It's great that the process was smooth and easy for you. If you ever need anything else, just let us know!"

"The service and communication that you get from Mike and Stephanie are literally world class. I have a hail damage claim going on and they kept me updated very consistently. Always asking if I needed anything else and how things are going. Plus a just referred someone to James Carlton and they got a yearly savings of $3600 on auto and rental insurance. Couldn’t ask for a better group of people."

"I had a good experience. It started with my neighbor knocking on my door to tell me my car lights were on. When I got outside to check. I try to start my car but it was completely dead. I called State Farm and I receved service right away. First with the app then with a couple of phone calls and text messages. The tow truck driver was there within 30 minutes. He called when he was outside and it took him less then 10 minutes to get my car started. He told me I could drive for at least 15 to 20 minutes. I am very satisfied with the service I received. Thank you State Farm for everything"

"I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service I received from the State Farm agents! Throughout a challenging time, they were professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive. From the moment I first called, the agents went out of their way to guide me through every step of the process. They made sure I was aware of all the documentation requirements and explained each step patiently. Their knowledge and willingness to assist made a stressful experience much easier to handle. One thing that stood out was their genuine care and empathy. It was clear they wanted to help me get back on my feet and were dedicated to making the process as smooth as possible. I never felt rushed or left in the dark—each conversation was thorough, and they took the time to address all my questions and concerns. In addition, the agents were highly responsive. Whenever I needed clarity, they were just a call away, and I never had to wait long for an answer. They even checked in on me at different points to ensure everything was going smoothly. I highly recommend State Farm , specially Stephanie based on this experience. It’s rare to find such attentive and friendly service, and I’m grateful for how much they helped during this time."
